WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has retweeted an audio recording that U.S. intelligence officials have described as being part of a Russian campaign to denigrate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

The leaked conversation, purportedly between Biden and former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, dates from Feb. 18, 2016. The excerpt of it retweeted by Trump centers on the ouster of Ukraine's chief prosecutor, who had previously investigated the owner of a Ukraine energy company where Biden's son, Hunter, once held a board seat.

2. That came out months ago wherein the Russians . .

doctored the call. It's a nothing burger.

3. And the president of the United States of America is tweeting that nothing burger.

I sure hope we can regain some respect in the world come November.
Trump is obviously doing the old throw 'em up against the wall and see which ones stick.

7. A nothing burger implies truth but no importance. This is is a spamburger with fake meat

What a shock that it was Russians who altered the information. As Pelosi said "with you, all roads lead to Putin".

If there were any truth to this "evidence", the Russiapublicans would be banging drums and chanting "lock him up 24/7. A rando tweet from cheetolini the night of the Democratic convention...pretty much tells the whole story.

4. There will be a barrage of deepfakes (or sloppy wannabe ones) in the next 2.5 months

Brace yourself, don't overreact one way or another, don't reward media outlets who fail in their due diligence with unnecessary amplification of the misinfo.

5. That thing just reeks of desperation and flop sweat.

8. If Trump forwards it, count on it being manipulated.

If Trump forwards it, count on it being manipulated.
